I don't think that it's a false positive - just strange policy. I suppose curl can be used to download stuff without a proxy - and that's why your organization blocks it. But it's not infected or something. The question just is if a standalone would help here. It's content would be the same (the files of osgeo4w are just repackaged into a large NSIS package). So your webfilter might reject to download an standalone installer for the same reason as well (as it also contains curl). Jürgen -- Jürgen E. Fischer norBIT GmbH Tel. +49-4931-918175-31 Dipl.-Inf.
